Disrepair by a Landlord Claims
Under the Housing Act, landlords have a duty to maintain properties at a reasonable standard and comply with health and safety regulations. When landlords fail in this responsibility, tenants can face serious injuries or illnesses, and in tragic cases, fatalities can occur.
RomanianWorkers is a leading firm in England and Wales, specialising in no win no fee personal injury claims. Our experienced claims team regularly advises tenants seeking compensation for injuries related to:
- Armed Forces accommodation
- Care homes and Housing Association properties
- Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs)
- Local authority and private rented accommodation
- Residential retirement and sheltered housing developments
Our personal injury solicitors work closely with our property and housing law department, allowing us to effectively handle cases involving:
- Burns and fire injuries
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Damp, mould, and related health conditions
- Electrical shocks and electrocution
- Falls from height
- Illnesses from insect or vermin infestations
- Lead poisoning and Legionnaire’s disease
- Lung conditions like bronchitis and pneumonia
- Skin infections and conditions
We also understand that living in substandard housing can lead to mental health challenges, including depression, particularly in overcrowded or poorly maintained homes. Our team is here to support tenants whose health or wellbeing has been compromised due to landlord disrepair.
How to Make a Claim for Injury Arising from Landlord Disrepair:
- Time Limit: Personal injury claims typically need to be made within three years of the injury.
- Children’s Claims: If a child is injured or becomes ill due to landlord disrepair before the age of 18, they can make a claim up to age 21. We can guide parents or guardians on how to act as the child's Litigation Friend.
- Bereavement Support: We offer legal assistance to families who have lost a loved one due to negligence related to landlord disrepair, such as house fires or electrocution.
RomanianWorkers solicitors always aim for maximum compensation, and in cases where long-term disability or catastrophic injury has occurred, we provide advice on rehabilitation, welfare benefits, home adaptations, mobility aids, and ongoing medical care costs.
